It was personal rather than professional. A tiny program with Eddie Mair and a lovely woman who actually came to our house. Can't remember her name or the program's!
Brexit, for once some facts.

Just keep reading this thread,Pulse pressures from my last two readings are 50 and 43 - but I still have much to learn, Zen master
Those pressures will soon go up!

That must have been an interesting experience. I love equipment-spotting the BBC - I wonder what they use for field recording these days? They used to use these:
Sony Pro Walkman WM-D6C
Sony Pro Walkman. Serviced and Guaranteed. With case. Laser amorphous tape head Quartz lock system Disc drive mechanism Dolby B and C noise reduction Manual recording level control LED peak recording level meter Versatile input and output jacks for hook up to home hi-fi systems and external...

...very high quality for it's time and very robust, mine eventually died a death (quartz-timed motor). Now unrepairable. Aiming it for the bin was a sad day.
This is fun
This is a fine example of urinating from a bedroom window on someone attempting to threaten you by setting fire to your dustbin.
This too
Quite! and boy, this is going to cost him

PM Boris Johnson to sue The New European over "buyer's remorse" article... Not.

I think it was a classic Uher but that could be false memory. It used to go out very early Saturday and repeated late afternoon or early evening. Tacked onto a longer program. She was, I think, a Jennifer.That must have been an interesting experience. I love equipment-spotting the BBC - I wonder what they use for field recording these days? They used to use these:

I really miss it - was better than my tape deck - I believe it's motor was the weakest point, constantly adjusting to maintain constant speed. I replaced it with a BOSS Micro BR. Recordings have lower noise, and it's fiddlier, but smaller and lighter (also much cheaper!):
Boss Micro BR
As Boss introduce their tiniest ever portable studio, we discover just how much can be packed into such a small box...
...great paired with decent mics. No instant one-touch recording though...

Professonally, she's got the better end of the deal - won't be short of acting jobs (of all types) after the Boris era. No more bit-parts in Hollyoaks...This is fun

Here's an interesting thought Oyster. That extreme pulse pressure was 2020, not '21 as I mistyped. Could getting a Covid infection cause a sharp rise in blood pressure? My blood pressure rises in the evening so I tend to check it at the usual peak times.
Pulse pressure: An indicator of heart health?
Pulse pressure may be a strong predictor of heart problems, especially for older adults.www.mayoclinic.org
In March 2020 London was hit hard by Covid with 2.5 times the infection rate of the rest of the country and my Borough the hardest hit of all. Here's my pressure from 3 random day samples taken before that 15th March sudden very high reading and the next three random date samples after:
26/1 113/84
1/2 118/76
19/2 116/82
15/3 201/82
4/4 161/76
17/6 163/83
19/6 167/81
As you can see a clear leap in pressures for a while from that day, though from July they started to normalise and even went too low in October.

As can measuring blood pressure (when accompanied by anxiety), which in part is why I try not to measure anything I don't have to (abaddon will have me, it will be messy, it's probably better if I don't see it coming)
I’ve got Michelin tyres on my Golf. To be honest they’re a shitty overpriced inferior quality product. I’ve never had a set last long enough to wear out. The side walls either crack or they become oval and create excess vibration. I never tried one of their restaurants, but if their tyres are anything to go by, I’m not missing much.The Windsor Suite, with Michelin starred food & drinks.
I think he's got a discount. The normal price is £3,300 a time.
Michelin restaurants (in my extremely limited experience, am more a macdonalds type) are overrated. But the tyres (have pilot sports) have been great. Could it be the car?
Hence the random dates I check it, I'm not a worrier so if I get a very high reading my answer is to stop checking it for a while.
As the old saying goes, what the eye doesn't see the heart doesn't grieve over.
